Wolf Mountain

This is just bad writing. The story starts out pretty good but the middle and the end of the story is just bad.

I pretty much guessed the plot line after things start happening in the woods.

The one redeeming person in this story that does the right things in the main character's cousin! He's the smart one who doesn't go running into the bear trap infested section and actually calls the cops. You think you know the ending of the story and there's always a twist. The killer always pops up again. You get about 30 minutes from the end and think this is the worse movie I've ever seen and it has Matt Rife.

This film was a lot of fun! Cool slasher flick and actually very funny. The pacing was excellent and I kept wanting more. The ensamble cast did a great job and the lead couple was believe and connected well. They carried the film. The characters were very funny and well-rounded. It reminded me of some of the films I grew up watching. I highly recommend this movie if you want to be entertained with a fun slasher flick. The team did a great job on this. I heard great things about it and had to check it out. The Curse of Wolf Mountain does not disappoint. Everyone should go watch! Check it out on Appletv!

Really entertaining! I found myself covering my eyes but also laughing out loud! Good cast!!! Loved the scary background sound effects as well as the scenery. I won't give anything away but I was shocked at one of the parts and found my jaw dropped. I watched it alone and was very scared at times. I love the fact that there was humor worked into the suspenseful plot I recommend this movie to all ages. I found it was the perfect length of time. Not too long and not too short. Most of all, I love when the story all comes together at the end and sums up all the unknowns and loose ends. I found the plot clever and well written. Good job!!!

I like a funny B-movie as much as the next guy, and some are so bad that they're actually entertaining to watch.

This one wasn't.

The script is a hot mess, the excessive libido early on doesn't improve the whole thing, neither do the exaggerated stereotypes with which the black Forest Ranger or the Hispanic women were portrayed.

The plot is a hot mess, the acting mediocre, the writing ... was there any?

Basically it's mostly aimlessly wandering/fumbling/staggering about in a dimly lit park, props on the cheap (did anyone have a look at that gin trap?).

I suffered through it because I wanted to have a resolution, and then wished I had finished watching once things were clear. It was dragging on pointlessly for another 20 minutes. I can't believe that Trejo was down for this, he must have been desperate for money.

Two brothers, their wives, and another couple go to Wolf Mountain in the desert hills north of Los Angeles to resolve a mystery from 20 years prior. Havoc ensues as corpses start mounting up. Tobin Bell and Danny Trejo are featured in small parts.

"Curse of Wolf Mountain," aka "Wolf Mountain" (2022), is basically a cabin-in-the-woods flick, except that the protagonists are camping out. The nature of the antagonist is kept ambiguous until the last act. Is it a wild man, a werewolf, or something else? The flick is essentially a modern take on 80's movies like "Don't Go in the Woods" and "Memorial Valley Massacre." It's better than the former and about on par with the latter.

Raven-haired Malu Trevejo as Emma is one of the highlights; she's just stunning, reminiscent of, say, Salma Hayek in her youth. Regrettably, she's removed from the proceedings too early. The fools.

The male protagonist is played by Keli Price, who could play Peter Parker. He also wrote the script.

The flick runs 1 hour, 35 minutes, and was shot at SilverStrand Ranch in Castaic, which is a 55-minute drive northwest of Los Angeles in the arid high country.
